Image viewer dialog window

We’re updating the Opera browser for Android today. We are busy looking into our mobile products and this version in particular does not contain anything big or sexy, mostly minor fixes. But these bug and stability fixes are very important because it makes sure the Opera browser works well, whatever Android device you’re using.

Here’s a quick look into some of the fixes we’ve implemented:

Discover– No more missing images

History– Two-column layout history view is now fixed, and will not blank out when removing an item from a big list– Scroll position is now remembered in tablet history view– Expanded history items will now be remembered per tab

Speed Dial– Speed Dial screen will now scroll up every time you open the Tab Bar– Speed Dial items now show up properly in omnibar suggestions.

An additional feature is also rolling out in history view. You can now long press on an item to delete an entry.

You can get Opera browser for Android in Google Play.
Try it and tell us what you think about it. Enjoy!

I use the address field autocomplete suggestions to open my Speed Dial links quite a lot. Why are you creating this new problem? Not to mention they were supposed to be the “new bookmarks” and that was one of the features linked to bookmarks functionality!
Please bring this back.

Sorry about that mix-up Rafael. It’s actually: now they show up properly now in omnibar suggestions.

Web page reappearance when navigating forward and back/switching between tabs is still sluggish as hell compared to my default browser (where the reappearance is instant, no doubt due to superior cache management). Can’t use this android browser at the moment even though I’m a big Opera fan, pity.

Still find the 3-step process needed to open a private dab, the split locations in O-menu and tab menu for “go to speed dial” and “new tab”, respectively, slightly counter-intuitive or even annoying. (FF’s approach might give “inspiration”… ;))
